Difference in FKS1 gene sequences between serotypes A and D of Cryptococcus neoformans.

Reiko Tanaka1, Yumi Imanishi, Kazuko Nishimura.   

Abstract

We compared sequences of the glucan synthase (FKS1) gene in serotypes A and D of Cryptococcus neoformans. Four introns were present in serotype D but not serotype A. PCR with primers that flank these introns permits simple differentiation of serotypes A and D.
